why this game became so laggy on my notebook? The fps drops like crazy!!!

lelouchlewis

Just came back for the new content, yet the game became so laggy comparing with my former gaming experience(my former average fps was about 45 or higher on high setting)
Now I set the graphic quality to medium, the fps randomly drops(the range was like7~34).even on low setting, it can still drops under 10! (so it's like 6~60)
All above was under the PvE environment.
PS: this is my system infor. It's not a super high-end gaming notebook, but it could easily handle most of game

Do you have any addons? Lots of addons have been making FPS drops/stuttering worse for many people. If you do, don't just uncheck them, totally remove them from the folder.

Unfortunately that's the only advice I have

Guess I will disable them 1 by 1 to see which one exactly caused that.

Ty for the advice/

But remember many people still have this issue even without any addons. Addons are not the cause (though some of them might aggravate the problem).

ZOS is aware of this and "looking into it".

The past few days there seem to be spikes in lag. A few days ago, i was playing, and only Rivenspire lagged. Next day a massive lag hit all over to where I (and many others) got booted. I waited a few hours before trying again. Would be nice to know why.

I agree. A few days ago, it became so bad I couldn't do anything in the game, and I couldn't exit, either. Finally had to load the Task Manager and end the game that way.

Since then, there have been a few times where this happened, but only for very short time periods, like 2-10 seconds. Just had one that lasted about 20 seconds, then the game crashed. Strange things going on. Weird thing is, I can move my character in the game, and my minions follow me, just can't do anything, can't click on anything, etc.
